Downtown Dinkeron
Founded in 2022
Downtown Dinkeron is a small city where Dinkies and Tinies work, socialize, and occasionally commit crimes. While Dinkeron has seen better days, there is a thriving music and art scene. Sometimes the bank gets robbed. You can eat waffles at the local diner after scoring catnip from the local dealer, who lives in the sleazy motel across the street from Tube Bar. The Dinkeron TV station plays late night commercials from Bobby Matsumoto, local budget lawyer. The Dinkeron newspaper reports on the latest before being used to line up the kitty litter boxes. There's Noki's lounge and bar, Conall's All Smoll's Blues club, and more. Sometimes you can take a break at the local museum. Despite the dangers of being a Dinkeron resident, it's still a great place to live.
Downtown Dinkeron
Overview:
The streets are crammed with all types of avatars, from dinkies and tinies to human figures, creating a strange, urban mix of scale and perspective. Tucked between huge office buildings are cramped alleyways, towering piles of trash, and businesses where size doesn't matter when it comes to the lawless atmosphere. There’s a clear division between the "citizens" and the "criminals," but somehow, they all manage to co-exist (though not always peacefully).
​
The Corruption:
Corruption is embedded into the very fabric of Dinkeron. Whether it’s the crooked cops at the pawlice station, the shady backdoor deals at the bank, or the under-the-table arrangements at the courthouse, the city thrives on illicit activities and shady politics. The law is often bent in favor of those with enough power, money, or connections, making justice a rare commodity in this wild urban jungle.
It’s a city of contradictions: grand in scale, yet murky and flawed in every corner, where survival means keeping your wits sharp and your allies closer than your enemies. Whether you're a dinkie trying to carve out a niche, or a giant with a hidden agenda, Dinkeron is a place where anything can happen, and often does.

Mayor Bill deLoser
Mayor Bill Deloser is the quintessential example of a Tiny with a big thirst for power, and in a city like Dinkeron, he’s a master at playing the game. He’s a tiny figure in the physical sense, but his grip on the city is anything but small—he knows that in Dinkeron, power isn’t measured by how big you are, but by how many people you can squeeze for cash.
​
In the City:
Deloser is always moving around the city, but he’s never truly part of it. He’s constantly surrounded by a small entourage of bodyguards and assistants—mostly local goons or former campaign donors who now serve as his enforcers. Whether he’s shaking hands with voters at the diner, giving a speech in the park, or attending a "gala" at the sleazy motel (where you might catch him mixing with lowlifes and criminals), Deloser’s only concern is staying in office, by any means necessary.
​
His charm can be convincing, but those who are wise to his ways know that he’s always on the hunt for his next donation. For every citizen he "helps," there’s another he’s extorted, bribed, or blackmailed into supporting his campaign. He’s like a cockroach—hard to crush, and with a knack for crawling into every crevice of the city’s corrupt system.

T.P. Rollins - Candidate for Mayor of Dinkeron
T.P. Rollins, the unlikely challenger to Mayor Bill Deloser’s corrupt reign, is the city's most... unconventional candidate. As the name suggests, his entire persona is built around toilet paper—an odd, but oddly fitting, choice for a city plagued by corruption and dirty politics. With a bold, tongue-in-cheek campaign slogan—“Let’s Wipe Him Out!”—T.P. has quickly gained traction as the people’s choice for change, offering a fresh and decidedly unorthodox approach to Dinkeron’s long-standing political issues.
​
T.P. Rollins is, quite literally, a walking roll of toilet paper. He’s not a human, dinkie, or even a standard avatar—he’s an oversized, animated roll of toilet paper with arms and legs, complete with a determined face drawn on the front. His “body” is a simple roll, though he’s decorated with a small suit (tailored to fit his shape), a jaunty campaign button, and, of course, his signature slogan printed on a piece of paper trailing behind him.
His face, with expressive eyes and a wide, toothy grin, is often seen on billboards and posters around the city, but it's his giant, rolling "legs" (often making a squeaking noise as he moves) that make him memorable in person. Despite being literally a roll of toilet paper, T.P. has mastered human-like gestures, frequently giving thumbs up, high-fives, and fist pumps to his supporters—who sometimes can’t help but laugh at his absurdity.
